Guide to Ascending the Temple Mount

The Temple Institute has, for the first time,

"published an online a brief summary of pertinent halacha (requirements of Torah law) and guidelines for ascending to the Temple Mount (aliya) in purity. While not intended to be a substitute for in-depth study or at the very least, consultation with a Torah scholar who is acknowledged to be an expert in this highly specialized, often neglected subject, this guide will introduce the potential pilgrim to the basic do's and don'ts of proper conduct upon the Temple Mount.

With Mashiach's arrival imminent, and the amount of visitors ascending the Temple Mount rising, this is an important guide to review for reference and preparation.

Montreal Rabbi Helps Child Abuse Cult Leader

Jameel of The Muqata and Dov Bear both brought this to our attention this past Sunday.

Yochanan Wosner a Montreal "Rabbi", and (now former) member of the Montreal Beth Din...

"is raising money on behalf of Elior Chen, a ringleader of what the Jerusalem Post called 'one of the worst child abuse cases in Israeli history.'"

On the bright side, Dov Bear noticed that the next day, MR. Wosner's name was omitted from the list of members of the Montreal Beth Din, so it's possible that he was excused from the establishment.
